For the 'fans' blaming the Saints' woes on Drew Brees

this is a discussion within the Saints Community Forum; People are blaming the Saints' woes on Drew Brees, so here's two never-used stats to show how wrong that is, and that he's still playing at his normal, elite level: Points Per Drive, and Points Per Drive Against. : nfl...

I noticed Drew took some sacks against Pittsburgh where earlier in the season I think he may have tried to force something. Sometimes taking a sack and punting is the right play. Of course the D has to then make stops. I've been on Drew's case admittedley, but the way our D was playing, it makes sense why Drew may have been forcing some throws. Let's hope the revitalized pass rush continues to hide our woeful secondary and that PRob continues to hold up. Really he was tested repeatedly against Pittsburgh and was in perfect position repeatedly.

Meh, fans get frustrated when their team is losing and the quarterback is the most visible target. Still boggles my mind though how some fans will go completely off the reservation in their criticism of a guy with DB's track record, .

I understand, "that pick hurt us" or "he's trying to do too much", but stuff like "trade him", not so much, .

I am glad he is getting a small dose of criticism as he should not be given a pass. There is no denying it. He has at times made bad decisions by forcing balls into areas he should not have. And it is not all on the OL. Some of it? Sure. But not all of it.
